Rua is co-founder and owner of YogaRuka. From a history as a teacher of sciences, to a journalist writing about the Mafia in the heated Neapolitan metropolis, to a multi-disciplinary artist fiddling with print and the web, Rua has changed lives a few times over. The only thing that has been sticking throughout is her passion for learning, and sharing mindful experiences rather than just knowledge - and that’s how today she is a dedicated meditation facilitator, a stretch therapist and a multi-style yoga instructor. She is striving to teach - or perhaps even better, facilitate yoga, and movement - the way she would have always wanted to be taught. Her long-term goal is to gather around her a new generation of practitioners who think of yoga and all its offshoots critically, not superstitiously, who aspire to work out healthily and live mindfully; to offer a resource for those who want to approach movement from a different angle; to offer a space for those who have tried and failed to get into it many times before, to try once more.
